A VtlV .I0KK UN V V( F. den. d. .M. siderable of hi with his son, d is a chief of Leach spends con st ime in Washington . M. Leach, dr., who division in the Sixth Auditor's ofliec. The General is us full of "reminiscences" and good stories as even and, one which 1 heard iiim relate to a party ot North Carolinians the other evening will bear repeatmg. Said he, in etl'ect: 'You know that Zeb Vance used to be a member of the National House before the war, and Sion Rogers represented t he Kaleigh dis trict in Congress. Well, some friends sent Frank Shober, of Salis bury, ami rue a case of very tine wine one day. Zeb and Sion found it out. somehow, and they nsed to come around Uj see as mighty often . In fact, they became great friends of ours, sticking closer than broth ers while the wine lasted. One night, after they hail re lieved us of a half dozen bottles, more or less, they got to feeling pretty good, and after a while, Zeb remarked that he believed he was just about the best dancer that North Carolina ever sent to Con gress. "Now, nobody ever heard of Zeb Vance's virtues as a dancer before. Every one knows that he dosen't in the least resemble a ballet girl. He ain't built right to dance and 1 didn't believe he bad ever had any experience in that direction before that night; but he stnek to his as sertion. "Well, Zeb kept repeating the statement until finally Sion say s: Zeb, I don't count myself any great shakes as a practical exponent of the terpsichorean ait, but I allow that I can just dance the hind legs off of you. 'Now, Sion Rogers was built like a bean-pole; he was over six feet high and as thin as a wafer, and no living man ever saw him without a big pair of eye glasses adjusted to his long nose. If it was funny to think of Zeb Vance's dancing, it was simply ridiculous to consider Sion Rogers i.i that connection. But Shober said he believed Sion conld down Zeb; I asserted to the contrary, and Sbober bet me 100. The room was cleared, Zeb and Sion peeled off their wearing ap parel until nothing was left but nocturnal habilimentp, and the two contestants took their positions on the floor. It was an ill assorted pair never were two men more unlike. Shober and I were to do the patting and Zeb and Sion were told ;that the man who stayed on the floor longest was to have a hall dozen bottles of our wine. Shober started the old plantation pat: the dancers caught step and went at it. ' 'Go it, Sion!' shouted Shober. " 'Buckle down to it Zeb!' lex claimed, and both men began to rattle off a double shuffle back step that would have turned any nigger in North Carolina green with envy. "Time passed ! ".Midnight came and went; the j clock on the mantel struck one. ! The dancingstill went on. "Day light appeared. Vance was 1 beginning to double like a hunch J back and he was sweating, like a I draft horse. Sion seemed to grow I taller every minute; his head was thrown back, his arms stood akim ! bo, only his toes appeared to touch the floor, and not a drop of perspira tion was visible abont him. I "The hotel breakfast-bell rang, i Shober and I were nearly exhausted although we took turns in patting: but the dancing still went on. Zeb's shirt was sticking to him like 1 a huge conrt-plaster, bat Sion look I ed as cool as a Christmas snow j storm. Zeb was bent over until he ! had nearly assumed a sitting pos ture. his bow-legs looking as round as a barrel hoop. Sion continued to grow taller and bis eye glasses still perserved their equilibrium on the end of his nose. 'When 12 o'clack came, and Con gress assembled, we suggested are cess. But no; Sion wouldn't hear to it. Finally I saw that Zeb., who now stood only about U feet, 2 inches in his stock, was about to subside, and I gave up. "The artists then once more re galed themselves with our wine, and Zeb went to bed. But Sion didn't. After dancing lb hours without a stop, he went to the House of Representatives anil made a big speech. I remember Congressman Rogers, although 1 was a small boy when he died. He agaiu represented the Raleigh district in Congress for one or two terms just after the war, ami a very able man and a most fluent and eloquent speaker he was. But lie is dead now and buried near Raleigh. And there he lies as you and I, dear reader, will some day somewhere lie "A thing, O'er which the rave (laps his funereal wings" Southern Home.

T'he plate, in fact, constitutes .1 wide door through winch tin- thctiicity passes freely into the euidi. its disruptive and damaging eihu-ts being thereby avoided. A common way of dealing with lightning con ductors adopted by ignorant prac titioners is, Dr. Tyndall remarks, to carry the ware rope which forms part of the conductor down the wall and Into the euth below, where it ends without any terminal plate. Su di a pio'ection" is a mockery, a delusion, and a snare. Some years ago a rock lighthouse on the Irish coast was struck by lightning, when he found by the engineer's repmt thit the light ning conductor had been carried down the lighthouse tower, its lower extremity- being carefully embedded in a stone perforated to receive it. If the object had been to insre the lightning to strike the tower, a better arrange ment could hardly, he believes, have been adopted. He vetoed the proposal to employ a chain as a prolongation of the conductor, as the contact of link with link is never perfect.

If difficulty of breathing is noticed, with running at the nose, see. first of, that there are no draughts of cold air striking him: put on an extra blanket: give a warm bran mash, and ten drops of tincture J aconite, once in two bouts. If the ! cold take the form of a cough, there is nothing better than a tablespoon 1 full of ground lobelia and ginger. ; mixed ui equil parts, 'pit in the ! bran mash, and it will be taken 1 without trouble. Where the horse becomes suddenly lame, the first step is to ascertain whether or not is the fault of the shoeing, as it very often is. In such a case, puil all' the shoe, give the foot a rest of a day, and then put it on rightly, It it be due tosprain. bathe in hot water, and rub dry. The various liniments are not efficacious as a rule, and generally result in taking, off the hair. It is better to call a well knosvn veterinary physician, than to nsk the loss of a valuable animal. The horse may die, ol course in spite of all that is done, but it will be a sat lst'act ion in case ot Ins death to feel that all has been done that was possible. Anu 1 ruin Agiicultui ist.

Return to your various tasks in life then, boys, with enthusiasm, resolving that the svoik you turn out, whether it be of head or hand, shall be the very best of which you are capable ; ami take our word for it, it will not seem arduous, for your earnestness will rob it of all tedium by hastening Father Time in his flight. In the land of pumkin pies ami cider there lived a man who had a great fondness for the latter. One day, on going to the cellar to fill the pitcher, he fell from the top to the bottom of the stairs. 1 1 is wife, hearing the fall, in great alarm ran to the top of the stairs ami cried out: .My dear, you haven't broke our brand new pitcher, have you'?" "No," said he. in agony of pain from the fall, "but I'll beshotjifl don't!" And suiting the action to the word, he dashed it against the wall. - 1 A Mother. 1 Oh. pilze your mother while you have her. girls ! You will never have any friend like her, though you make thousands. She may not Hatter you and tickle your vanity, she may tell you soiled truths, mid warn yon ol dangers, and keep to herself all she thinks of you, but there is no one this side of heaven who has your well-being so much at heart. It seems as natural to have a 1 mother to love you as it does to ! breathe the air or enjoy the sun rise : so natural that it never oc curs to you that some day you have none. A girl, as a rule, is familiar with mot her half saucy to her. j sometimes. She thinks her mother's notions are a little old fashioned, j Girls belies e t hey know- best.

American Magazine. An Editors' Kesirt. Stale Immigration Agent Pat rick is sending out letters contain ing a seductive offer from Dr. W. II. (dapehart, of Avoca, to the edi tors ol the State. The letters con tains a proposition from Mr. Cape hart to give to each editor in the State a building lot in Avoca, the eastern Carolina winter and sport ing resort. It is proposed that each editor in exchange for the lot, give a small space in his adver tising columns, one half of widen is to be. devoted to advertising the State and its resources, and the other hall to advertising the resort itself. The main object is to de velop the resources of eastern Carolina, and it is thought that capital in abundance can be had for that purpose if capitalists can be brought into the section and shown the many fine openings for nearly- everything, only waiting for money to develop them. Be sides this all the editors, who are proverbially shallow pocketed, can have a cottage and home of their ow n at the head of the famous and beautiful Albemarle sound, where they can repair either in summer or in winter for rest and recreation. News and Observer. ( hip-Trap J oiirnulisiii. The New York World is indig nant because this paper shares the incredulity as to the alleged meas urements of the hull of tiie Thistle by a diver employed by that ex ponent of clap trap journalism. Our contemporary enjoy-s a cheap mo nopoly of bogus nesvs such as it gave to the public about the This tle's proiiie and section. When the Thistle was exposed to view a few days later it was plain to every body that the World's measure ments were grossly inaccurate. They were, in fact, nttedy wrong both as to profile and midship sec tion. But the same shamelessness that led to a pretense of measure ments that did not occur sustains our contemporary in sticking to its crazy story. The fool-killer has much to reproach himself for in the continued existence of persons who mistake "monkey business" for enterprising journalism . Bal ti me ro Sun . A hydrant up town having burst, flooded the neighborhood, and the w-ater running into the cellar ot a poulterer, drowneel out the hens svhich he kept there. The poulterer went to the office of the Board of Public Works, where he found a dandyish looking clerk in attend ance, to svhom he made a complaint, urging an immediate attention to the matter, as his hens had 110 place but the cellar in which to stay, and the water frightened them. "Hens!'' exclaimed the clerk, peer ing through bis eyeglass. "Hens afraid of watei! Why in thunder don't you keep ducks!"' She is Not Worth a Straw. At Foint Pleasant, W. Va., two young men were in love with .Miss Fuuice Laidly, and each popped the question. The young lady was perplexed, but finally decided that they should "draw straws" to de termine which should become her . husband. It is extremely doubtful if a young lady who thus disposes of her affections will be f'onnd to be "worth a straw" after marriage. ORTGAGE and Warrantee Deeds on hand all tbe time. The Work of Two State Conventions. The New York Democrats yester day, at Saratoga, adopted a plat form that puts to shame the silly impositions that have in several States placed before the people as declarations of Democratic faith and purpose. It calls for an im mediate reduction of taxes to the extent of $100,000,000 a year. The taxes first to be reduced, or alto gether removed, are those on raw materials and the common neces saries of life. A reform of customs legislation tt ith a view- to sy stem izing, simplifying ami economizing the machinery tor collection of duties is also demanded, the line ot reform recomniended being that marked out in the famous Hewitt bill. The civil seiviee law, both State an d national, is approved, and, in view- of the importance of the results of its enforcement, it is suggested that it be submitted to the popular vote. Sumptuary leg islation is opposed as interfering with the liberty of the citizen.
